Abstract: Let (R,sim) be the Rado graph, Emb(R) the monoid of its self-embeddings, Pi(R)=f[R]:finEmb(R) the set of copies of R contained in R, and mathcalIR the ideal of subsets of R which do not contain a copy of R. We consider the poset (Pi(R),subset), the algebra P(R)/mathcalIR, and the inverse of the right Green's pre-order on Emb(R), and show that these pre-orders are forcing equivalent to a two step iteration of the form Pastpi, where the poset P is similar to the Sacks perfect set forcing: adds a generic real, has the aleph0-covering property and, hence, preserves omega1, has the Sacks property and does not produce splitting reals, while pi codes an omega-distributive forcing. Consequently, the Boolean completions of these four posets are isomorphic and the same holds for each countable graph containing a copy of the Rado graph.
